Springbank 8 Year Old – Local Barley 2025 Release
The Campbeltown Cult Classic Returns
Each year, Springbank’s Local Barley release is one of the most sought-after bottles in the whisky calendar — and the 2025 edition is no exception.
Crafted using heritage Bere barley grown exclusively at High Ranach Farm, this is Campbeltown whisky with provenance, patience, and power behind it.
Matured for 8 years in a 50/50 mix of bourbon and sherry casks, it’s bottled at a bold 58.1% ABV, natural colour, and without chill filtration — exactly how fans of the distillery like it.
